Ephesians 6:18-19 gives vital instructions for us today!
18 Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God’s consecrated people). 19 And [pray] also for me, that [freedom of] utterance may be given me, that I may open my mouth to proclaim boldly the mystery of the good news (the Gospel),
Prayer is such a powerful and priceless privilege that God has given us! Prayer is simply communion with the One, True God! Prayer in intercession for others is great seed sown that will reap great rewards in our own lives. Job's healy, family and fortunes were restored, even more than before, when he prayed for his friends! Even though theyy had treated him unfairly. There is no better way to walk in the love that never fails than to pray for those who have hurt you! That frees YOU to move on in faith with God's plan for your life and enables GOD to get involved with them as only He can to bring them into fellowship with Himself! And then ALWAYS pray for the ministers of God as they go about our Father's business in the way that only they and God can direct! AMEN! Then Paul closes Ephesians with these verses:
23 Peace be to the brethren, and love joined with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). 24 Grace (God’s undeserved favor) be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with undying and incorruptible [love]. Amen (so let it be).
AMEN! God is GOOD! ALL the TIME! And He brings GOOD things into our lives! COUNT ON IT! Here is Hillsong Worship with: "From Whom All Blessings Flow":
Shalom in Him!
